MAP31: Vorticon (Doom 2 the Way id Did)

The level itself is inspired by the game Commander Keen and features textures, two new enemies and five various levels of the original game, interpreted into Doom and merged into one level.

Secrets

 * 1) At the south end, head to the west side with purple blocks and head to the northwest end. Go through the purple blocks from the north end to get a megaarmor inside the purple blocks. (sector 560)
 * 2) Head to the east side of the south end and go south through the fire zone. Find small, gray blocks to the east side and take them up, then head south to an area with a BFG9000. (sector 582)
 * 3) At the west end, head to the south side and climb the steps until you see a yellow wall just before the yellow hall going north. Lower it, enter, and lower the next yellow wall. Head west and another yellow wall lowers. Jump west and head north and around to a backpack. (sector 1008)
 * 4) At the east end, climb the steps, continue east, and open a blue wall in a small alcove to the south. Follow the path around to get a super shotgun. (sector 727)
 * 5) Take the first warp to the pyramid. Head northwest of it to some gray dots. Hug the wall as you head up to enter a secret passage. (sector 48)
 * 6) After killing all of the Yorps, head past Secret #5, across the fire platforms, and to the gray area. Climb the steps and press the switch at the end to raise a bridge going north. Head up to the east to a purple area leading to the secret exit. (sector 104)
